I have looked around the net for a place to buy 45mm audio faders but everyone just seems to have the linear ones.
Most datasheets for 45mm faders (like ALPS) list the "audio"/log versions but they are usually special order with high minimum quantity when you try to order them from the retailers.

Do anyone have a good supplier?
